Hello fellow PD'ers, I want to let you know about two new online courses that are being offered through ProfessionalStudiesAE.org, a new PD portal from ProLiteracy and World Education. Our organizations have been working together to develop a series of four online courses for teachers that focuses on student assessment as part of effective adult education. Two of these courses open in June - coming up very soon! - and two follow-up courses will be offered next year. The current courses are: * Fundamentals of Assessment (June 2 - June 16) Your guide to basic concepts in student assessment - learn how to use standardized assessments effectively and develop better in-class assessments. * Assessments Developed by Teachers and Students (June 16 - July 17) Expand your assessment toolkit! Learn about tools to check day-to-day student progress, dynamic forms of assessment, and how to involve your students in assessment design. These courses combine top-quality content on student assessment in adult education and literacy with a very user-friendly online format. In these facilitated courses teachers will explore assessment concepts and strategies in-depth through online activities, readings, and discussion boards, all with an expert facilitator and adult education colleagues across the country.
